I don’t normally read dystopian type books but this one sounded interesting so I thought I would give it a go.
The story develops at a good pace with just the right amount of intrigue to keep you guessing. The characters are engaging and likeable, which has you rooting for them to succeed. The writing and atmosphere helped imagine the city of Vittoria and its residents growing up inside the walls and the surrounding desolate areas.
It was interesting to see how characters and the town as a whole reacted to outsiders and when they realised everything they’d been brought up with wasn’t necessarily true. Definitely relevant in today’s society. A good book with a great message.
